Tribute to "Kavna" the Beluga Whale

Baby Beluga  Book Read Aloud, written by Raffi and illustrated by Ashley Wolff


This is a read-aloud (song) of the children's board book Baby Beluga. The song is written by Raffi, and the book is illustrated by Ashley Wolff.

Kavna, the beluga whale that inspired the beloved children's song "Baby Beluga" by Raffi, passed away from a possible cancer-related illness on Monday August 6th at the Vancouver Aquarium.  The song  also inspired the very successful children's book "Baby Beluga".

The 46-year-old whale spent her life in captivity, according to the Vancouver Sun, but lived well beyond the life expectancy of her species. Aquarium workers told The Canadian Press that belugas typically live 25 to 30 years, and that Kavna may have been even older than her estimated age.
